Nebuchadnezzar
Troubadour
I don't necessarily limit myself to fantasy & SF. I once wrote a (bad) story set in Weimar Germany and I've got some stories about a lower league English soccer team in my head that are barking to get out. But mostly I write fantasy stories and that's because those are the stories that usually come into my mind.
What I do try to focus on though is writing fantasy stories that have to be fantasy, as opposed to writing something that is e.g. really a Western but with swords replacing guns, dragons replacing horses and elves replacing Indians. In other words, the fantasy & magical elements aren't just scenery but truly integral and the story would fall apart if they weren't there. I think it might have been Marion Zimmer Bradley who said that if you put a wizard in a story, he'd better do some magic; and if the only magic he does is to light a campfire when a match would have done just as well, you didn't really need him.
